long responses

My comments are so long they could be posts themselves. I've decided write them as posts, as it may be a little easier to access and friendlier to the eye for keeping up with Em's emails of telling me to post.

hey em, i think that article was wrong. i heard twice this year is the year of the fire boar. both from mommy and a chinese zodiac website. also, "golden pig" isn't as special as it sounds. u no how there are the elements fire, air, wind, and water signs in the "regular" zodiac? there is something like that in the chinese zodiac as well. the chinese zodiac is gold, water, wood, fire, and something else. anyway, there are about 5 elements so of course, every 60 yrs, it's going to fall on a different element for each animal. i saw the same article u sent me in a paper copy of the economist. maybe there was a bad translator. neway, it is supposed to be a lucky year for the boar due to the placement of stars but cuz the stars are placed that way, it's 'chance-y' as well. i'll get that article to you eventually. ttyl!
